Are they off the radar for now? Good! Happy that Sinapoor was only a transit.

[apskip]

Maybe most have not seen ARAus1 since nobody has cited it. My records show that Sri Lanka was visited in episode 11. It involved a circle route to Colombo, Ambalangoda, Galle and back to Colombo, which was the release point for the finale.

Yes!!!  It was the blessing in the temple (with an HoO); the detour (counting fishes or carry ice bars) at a fish market; the quiz in Galle about Sri Lanka's independence year that allowed teams to unlock the locks of wooden chests hidden in the beach with a second quiz about the year that the father of modern Sri Lanka was born that opened the lock of another chest - also hidden in the same beach - with the next clue; the travel by bus to Ambalangoda, with the memory task (remember a specific mask from a photo, and search it in a street festival); the roadblock that implied sewing a shirt; and the PitStop at Independence Square.

The carrying ice bar in TARAus1 was the same as the one in TARA4... repeated task. =/

And, if I'm not wrong, the PitStop was in the same place.

And the sewing a shirt RB too, the only difference was the Yield previous to the RB.

Nothing at the Esplanade people.. unless you count loads of people watching artsy performances? LOL

Huge thanks for going Joab!!

I was hoping to narrow it down a little more, but here's a list of all airports that fill this criteria:

1) Had flights from T1 in Hong Kong after 'Amazing Race host' was sighted there (2pm June 1)
2) Had flights from Singapore after reported flight from Surabaya arrived (9am June 2)
3) Cannot be flown direct from Surabaya.


BKI Kota Kinabalu
BKK Bangkok
BLR Bangalore
BNE Brisbane
BOM Mumbai
DAC Dhaka
DEL Delhi
DXB Dubai
HAN Hanoi
HKT Phuket
HND Tokyo
ICN Seoul
LHR London
MAA Chennai
MEL Melbourne
MNL Manila
NRT Tokyo
PER Perth
RUH Riyadh
SGN Ho Chi Minh City
SYD Sydney

(Colombo could still be a possibility, but there were no direct flights from Hong Kong on that day)

As a side note, Allan Wu was attending a racing event about 100 miles from Hong Kong airport on June 2. However, there's a closer airport so I'd be surprised if the HKG sighting was him.

That Melbourne flight from Singapore left them with way too tight of a connection. And some of those flights required a really long layover in SIN. I didn't think WRP would want them waiting on a connection for more than 5-6 hours. I also seriously doubt they skipped ahead to London.
The most logical options to me for timing and location were Seoul, Manila, and Bangkok (please no). But they might have different logic

[georgiapeach]

We don't know which host it was, so we sadly cannot assume Phil.

Just ran across this tweet:

Ruth Waiman‏@Roopunzel

Just spotted an #AmazingRace flag in TA- could it be the REAL one??! Needed that bit of excitement cc @twohandtouch

I just saw that too. TA=Tel Aviv!

I only find people of Tel Aviv are all excited because Madonna just held a peacekeeping musical concert yesterday and today?..

still observing though...

[Prophet]

Supposing that the Colombo and Tel Aviv sightings are true, the teams could have connected through Frankfurt to get to Israel.

[Dom]

Leafsfan wrote at 12.30am Singapore time on July 3 that teams were headed to CMB. Assuming the info was pretty recent, this makes sense with the flight schedules, with two flights fitting the bill:

SIN to CMB
SQ468 Dep 10:45pm Arr 11:55pm
EK349 Dep 12.55am Arr 1.55am

@karamarise yes meron Amazing Race. Napakaloser ko sa mga info

Local race?

Seems like it, I've been replying to two of them as well as Dom El.. but no legit answer yet... instead, they retweet our question...    it should be local (I hope..)

Is the twitter search engine always so flaky?  I searched Amazing Race Davao after seeing Prophet mention the tweet and found it, but if I just search Amazing Race I don't see it.

Could this Davao sighting incorporate with TAR Philippines filming? I haven't check TARP board recently...

use quotes "amazing race" and be sure you are checking ALL tweets not just top tweets. I see it?

FB search however must have some geographic limitations. Or it hates me.

Ah, I see, it defaults to top tweets.  Still new to this

[georgiapeach]

and vary your search too, try Phil, cameramen, backpacks, filming, other terms. If we suspect a location, start looking at the airports, top tourist places, etc. It is a full time job!!

WOW!!  Searching on those social network is really a tricky job...
Hope we can soon find some more clues....

I'm sure we would have heard a lot more than one tweet if the race was indeed in Perth.. Doesn't make sense for teams to fly from SUB to SIN only to double back to Perth.

There's nothing in the pics that provide info about TAR in Perth.   .

[TARFansurvivor]

Seems that they have done a great job, this time around with that, they are not been spotted.
I personally thinks that they still in Asia or they have made it to Africa.

Oceania and Europe would had track them down.

[Prophet]

They have been spotted, they are in Perth, Tel Aviv, the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Sri Lanka all at once!


But seriously, if she was flying back from Perth to Singapore it makes it interesting because that's where they would have been coming from. The terminals and all would line up.
